The contents of the Jawboning page were merged into Moral suasion on 26 December 2022. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected page, please see its history; for the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

I think the article Jawboning should be merged into Moral suasion. Both articles define both the names as synonyms of each other. Any objections? Quarl ^{( talk)} 02:52, 26 February 2013 (UTC) reply

I disagree, they are two very distinct terms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.213.143.11 ( talk) 12:50, 22 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Also disagree, removing tag. Smallbones_{( smalltalk)} 03:30, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Jawboning was created in 2004, but hadn't gained much substance a decade later, when a merge was previously proposed, and still hasn't, another decade later - so it seems unlikely that this is going to change in the foreseeable future either. That term and this one are not precisely synonymous, per the comments above, but there is considerable overlap, per the introductory paragraphs of both articles. A merge does seem in order.
